He died at about the same time as the census was being enumerated, so it’s possible that he was missed.

Death certificate lists father’s birthplace as Hamburg, Germany and mothers as Fyen, Denmark. [2, 11]Death 12 Apr 1930 Belmont Hospital, Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, USA [2, 9, 12, 13] Burial 15 Apr 1930 Mount Olive Cemetery, Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, USA [2, 9, 13] - Section LQ, Grave 61
